Heterotrophs contrast with autotrophs<span>, such as </span>plants<span> and </span>algae<span>, which can use energy from </span>sunlight(photoautotrophs) or inorganic compounds (lithoautotrophs<span>) to produce </span>organic compounds<span> such as </span>carbohydrates<span>, </span>fats<span>, and </span>proteins<span> from inorganic </span>carbon dioxide. These reduced carbon compounds can be used as an energy source by the autotroph and provide the energy in food consumed by heterotrophs. Ninety-five percent or more of all types of living organisms are heterotrophic, including all animals and fungi and most bacteria and protists.<span>[4]</span>
The correct answer is option C
All the animals are Heterotrophs as they cannot perform photosynthesis.
Except some of the sponges, all the animals are heterotrophs as they cannot make their own food(photosynthesis).
Heterotrophs depends on autotrophs or some other organisms for their food.
They are dependent on other organisms for their energy needs.
Meiosis. Sexual recombination. Crossing over. Independent assortment. Mutations.
The two MAIN sources would be genetic(sexual) recombination and mutations. Mutations allow for genetic variation, while genetic recombination allows for genetic shuffling. :)
I Dont know srry mate next time maybe
